City Overview
The vast natural harbour of Mahon is the capital city of the island of Menorca. Mahon or Mao, as it is known in Catalan, is the most lively place on the island with many bars and taverns in the Anden Poniente area. The island itself offers many beautiful and relatively isolated beaches where you can indulge the beach bum in you. when all the sun gets to you, visit prehistorical remains, marvel at the mismatched archiceture or enjoy the fauna and flora of the Mediterranean area.

Daily Budget
Accommodation in Mahon will probably be your biggest expense but if you stick to eating at tapas bars and drinking at the local hangouts instead of the tourisy places, you should get away with around US $48 a day. In terms of entertainment nothing beats the beach for cost cutting!
